EDITORIAL LETTER. .
WASHINGTON, April 16, 1888.
DEAR GAzETTE:—The:silly deadlock in
the House was ended Thursday night.
Brit while the rebel brigadicrs had to yield
to the dictation of their party majority,
they still scored half a victory in that they
exacted that the question of restoring to
such of the rebel states that had paid the
war cotton tax the full amount thus col-
lected, should be taken'up again at the
opening of the next session, after the
Presidential issue shall have been deter-
mined. The coast is now clear for he
consideration and passage of the impera-
tive appropriation bills, but whether much.
else is consummated in the way of health-
ful legislation is very problematical..
Senator Platt is the recipient of praises
on all sides for his clear, calm and masterly
argument in favorof the admission of South
Dakota as a state. He showed that all due
forms necessary and preliminary to ad-
mission to the Union had been properly
complied with and nothing but the greatest
partisan injustice could keep that ' people
out any longer. Eight states already in
the Union, said he, have less population
than South Dakota. His 'speech was so
fortified by facts and his reasoning so un-
answerable, that no one yet has been able
to gainsay his arguments. Nothing that
Senator Platt has hitherto done in the
Senate, has advanced him so far up in the
front among the Senate’s ablcst debaters.
That no mistake was made by his Repub-
lican colleagues when they assigned him
to the chairmanship of the Committee on
Territories and entrusted him with this
delicate and important duty, is universal-
ly conceded and our Connecticut Senator
is congratulated most sincerely and heart-
ily on all sides.
' AMERICAN EXCHANGE.
The disastrous failure of the American
Exchange at London, of which one Sena-
tor Hawley was president, is said to be
very humiliating as well as financially (lis-
astrous to him, although he had nothing
whatever to do with the financial details
of its administration. Whether the (10m-
pany’s financial agent, Mr. Gillig is more
knave than fool, seems to be at present an
unsettled question, that he is a good deal
of both, would seem to be beyond dispute.
He slipped away to Europe by Saturday’s
steamer for New York. It is believed the
company will be reorganized and re-
established on a more conservative and
useful basis, in the near future, as it has
been of immense benefit to American
tourists in Europe. '
REDEMPTION BUREAU.
Everybody’s friend, Albert Relyea, is
now dilligently plodding over his duties
as Chief of the Redemption Division of
the U. S. Treasury, an otilcc under U. S.
Treasurer Hyatt. Relyea is well fitted for
the place and will execute the duties. of
his high office with celerity and accuracy
and draw his four thousand dollars a year
salary, with all the fortitude of a demo.
cratic “reformer" and patriot,who believes
"a public office is a public trust." He is
very fortunately happily situated here, as
his chief has permitted the “uncaught old
bachelor" to make his home with him and
he will be looked after and cared for with
motherly and sisterly solicitude by Mrs.
Hyatt.
As an evidence of how a Yankee can
excel almost any other kind of an official
in the despatch of the public work.
Treasurer Hyatt has notified the commit-
tee on appropriations that he can keep rip
the business of his bureau with fifteen less
clerks than have hitherto been allotted the
treasurer’s ofiice.
Such practical and sincere reform as
this means something and is free from all
the cant and disgust of its usual hypoc-
risy.
MORE POSTAL REFORM.
Post Ofiice Inspector Ii. C. Morris, who
has been at City Island examining the
books and vouchers of the missing post —
master, Lemler, has finished his investiga-
tion{ lle fdund that Lcmlcr is a dcfaulter
in the sum of $1,212.08. Lemlcr is still
in hiding. He is believed to be in the
vicinity of Clifton, Canada, near Niagara
Falls. .
A newly appointed mail route agent was
also arrested last week for robbing the
mails in his charge.
MORAL PURITY.
Anthony Comstock, another old Nor-
walk boy, who is enjoying a comfortable
$4,000 a year salary is here with his wife.
Yesterday p. m. be made an address at
the First Congregational church, upon
the invitation of the Woman’s Christian
Temperance Union of the District of
Columbia, on the subject of the moral
purity of our children and youth, and to-
day he and Mrs. Comstock had an ap-
pointed interview with the Presrdent.
Although it is quite ,to common to 1am-
poon Comstock and the work he is doing,
few comparatively, have any conception
of the great service he has rendered in the
suppression and-destruction of many of
the devil‘s methods for the moral destruc.
tion of the pure minded youth of our land.
And whatever else may be said of him
from the point his zeal is most frequently
criticised, no man has aclearcr conception
of what is true art and what is sensuality
and smut in pictures and sculptures. His
best endorsement and highest compliment
is the cordiality with which he is hated-by
the vile and lewd everywhere. llis lec-
ture here, as everywhere, was largely at-
tended and well I'cceivcd by pastors and
people.
'I‘IIEATRIcAL.
Miss Ada Dyas, who has just played a
very successful week’s engagement at the
National Theatre here, and who is a
special favorite among the theatre goers
of the capitol, draws the following Well
merited expression of just appreciation
from the Washington Post’s exceptionally
able and discriminating dramatic critic:—
“Tlic acting of Miss Dyas was simply
exquisite. Miss Dyas, however she may
be surpassed in forcible passages, has no
superior on the American stage in the deep
effectiveness of her quiet style. Her face
is marvelously responsive to the internal
feeling which is being aroused, and it has
a power of suggestive
Which is instantly felt by the whole audi-
ence. Paradoxical as it may seem, her
strongest points are where she is stillest,
and in her work there was abundant ,op—
portunity to observe the. beauty, finish
and impressrveness of her subdued art.
Her Mrs. Balaton is, undoubtedly, a very
successful part, and it was greatly enjoyed
last night. '
MR. BLAINE.
In a letter dated Naples, March 27, and
received by Senator ll ale from his brother,
Mr. Clarence Hale, a lawyer of Portland,
Me.. who is now travelling abroad,is this
paragraph:
“I have passed the last four or five-
days with the Blaines, and have enjoyed ~
it very much in this fine co'IIntry of
southern Italy, in weather which is our
best June weather. Iliave just left the
Blames at Sorrento, where they will stay
some time longer, I think. Mr. Blaine is
looking fine, and is in the best of spirits.”
IIR. OONKLING.
The critical illness of Ex-Senator Conk-
ling has evoked the sincerest sympathy
and regret among men of all parties here.
His excruciating sufferings seem to have
evoked that genuine “touch of nature
that makes the “hole wOrld :kin.” His
speedy recovery seems to'be the one
supreme anl universal wish, and that _so
collosal an intellect and so grand ‘a man,in
every sense, may yet l.ve long to bless
mankind. Of Mr. Conkling, as of Mr.
Blaine it may be said, that few public men
have been mor: «arcfnl of their bodies
and more reckless in their over use and
abuse f their brains and itis no wonder
that when both are stricken with disease,
the. Citadel of the intellect is
the first to be attacked. Both,
expressiveness
though, are of the grandest
lives of American manhood and such
as our nations and the world may'well
revere.
HORSEBACK.
Horseback riding is among the most
common and popular methods sought
after here for health giving exercise.
Almost any pleasantmorning orafternoon
may be seen Secretary Bayard, and his
daughters; the long past octogenarian
Historian Bancroft, with Congressional
Librarian Stafford, galloping off on some
one of the many romantic rural roads
leading out from. the capitol. The Star
says that Miss Freiich,'daughtcr of Repre-
sentative French of Connecticut, is the
best and most fearless horseback rider,
of all the many Washington ladies who
delight in that delightful method of exer-
cise. Secretary Whitney and Attorney
Gen. Garland and about half of the senate,
with scores of members (if the ,House, are
frequent and expert riders. We must not
omit to state that Historian Bancroft, now
far advanced in the eighties. led a blush-
ing widow on whose fair and point lace
covered brow, the suns of over seventy
summers had shed their shining rays to
the hymeneal altar last week. Society'
“snicker-ed" a good deal,.and yet shoWer—
ed the venerable pair with its congratu-
lations and has settled down to the belief
that after all it was a sweet and sensible
union for the aged pair, and that though
life is flickering in the socket love is not
dead. ‘ - _ - '

ALUM BAKING POWDERS.
Declared Adulterated Food and their Sale
Illegal. -
The result of a trial just concluded at
Canton, N. Y., before Judge Kellogg, will
have a salutary effect in checking the sale
'of one class of adulturated food. . Two
men. named 'Moon and VAkerill, . were
arrested for selling adulturated bakiiig
powder in violation of the State food
adulteratiou act. The indictment was for
both selling baking powders that were in-
ferior, adulturated and injurious to health
by reason of being made from alum, and
for selling them under pretence that they
were a wholesome cream of tartar baking
powder. A stubborn defence was made,
the claim being set up that baking pow-
ders were not articles of food and that the
powder the defendants were selling, which
was known as Gillett‘s, was a standard
article of trade. and that alum baking
powders inferior to it, like Davis’ and
others, were being sold by other dealers
in the same town without complaint. The
Court held that baking powders were
articles of food within the meaning of the
guilty upon all the charges. The case has
attracted much attention from being the
first brought under the State Food Adul-
teration Act against dealers in altiin baking
powders The resultof the trial is to class
such baking powders as adulterated
articles of food and to make their sale
illegal. There are many alum baking
powders put up in cans, under some name
or brand, in addition to those soldin built,
the sale of all of which cautious dealers
will probably be unwilling to continue.

Medicines Hard to Take.
The old-fashioned notiOu that “physio"
ought to be “nasty,” and that if it is not
nasty it cannot possibly do the patient any
good, seems now in afairwa to be ranked
among exploded fallacies. he Pharma-
ceutical Journal, which has played a.con-
spicuous part in dispelling this ancient de-
aud successful practitioners now recognize
the fact that the influence of the mind
over the body 13 such that the whims and
fastidiousness of patients in respect to
nauseous and-offensive medicines “cannot
consistently be ignored.” But there is yet
another reason, as this authority reminds
us. It is well known that patients often
deceive their doctor by secretly throwing
away medicines that offend the taste or
are repulsive in appearance. and this even
in cases where the successful action or the
. failure of the remedy is perhaps a matter
of life or death. As a natural result, it
the patient dies or derives no benefit, the
doctor or the drug, or both, bear the
blame. After this no one will be surprised
to learn that the past year has shown
greatly increased apprecration of every-
thing that tends not__only to definite doses,
but also to convenience and palatability in
medicines—London News.

NORWALK GAZETT
A Dismal Outlo .
The following dolorous “give away" of
the Democratic situation in Connecticut, 1
is from the versatile pen Of‘-,I.Il0 New York ;
Sun’s New Haven}correspondent. Many l,
things can frequently be ‘learned from
“our friends the enemy," and this graphic
photographic view of the condition of the
party of reform (P) in this State, will prove
mighty interesting reading:
There are some of the leaders of the
Connecticut Democracy who are candid
enough to admit that,undcr existing polit-
ical conditions, the State must be con-
sidered as belonging in the doubtful list
in the next Presidential canvass, and its
electoral vote can be secured for the
Democratic candidates only by the hardest
work and the shrewdest management.
It is patent to any intelligent political
observer that the Democratic party in this
State has lsot vitality during the pastthree
years. Various causes have combined to
produce this result. One of the principal
causes has been the retention of Republi-
cans in the Federal offices. The work of
turning the rascals out Inadc snail-like
progress during the first two years of the
Cleveland administration. Lately it has
been followed up with considerable vigor
but the injurious effects of the long delay
cannot. it is feared, be overcome by an
exhibition of eleventh-hour zeal. One of
the shrewdest of the Republican leaders
in this State, in commenting on the recent
removals of Republican officials, said to
the Evening Sun correspondent :' “If the
Republicans could have had absolute con-
trol of the matter they could not have
gained a more substantial advantage than
will come to them from the policy that the
Administration has pursued. Republicans
have been continued in office, many of
them for three years. Now they are turn-
ed out on the eve of the Presidential elec-
tion, and thus converted into active poli-
tical workers. The Democrats will hardly
consider the quarter of a loaf that is now
tossed to them better than no bread. The
Democrats who have been put in otiice at
this late day, having before them the fear
of the iron—clad rules of the Civil Service
Reform humbug againstactivity in politics,
will keep very quiet, and the hundreds of
disappointed applicants for office will not
have time before the election comes off,
to recover from their disappointment, and
so will be lukewarm and halthearted in
their support of the party."
There is a good deal of hard sense in
the reasoning of this Republican politi-
cian.
The Connecticut Democracy has been
weakened rather than strengthened by the
recognition that has been extended by the
Administration to the Hon. David A.
Wells, the great apostle of free trade. In
the eastern part of the State he has been
almost the sole dispenser of Federal
patronage, and has embraced the, oppor«
tunity to put none but free traders on
guard in the post offices and custom
houses. He has studiously lgnOl‘Cd the
claims of veterans in the Democratic cause.
Having little knowledge of the personnel
of the party, scarcely an appointment that
has been made at his suggestion has been
put where it would prove of any political
advantage.
Fortunately the Hon. William H. Bar—
num, Chairman of the Democratic National
Committee, who belongs to the Randall
wing of the Democracy. has had some-
thing to say as to the distribution of the
Oflices elsewhere than in the Third Con—
gressional district. The absence of the
Hon. Thomas M. Waller from the State
has been a serious detriment to the party.
He was the recognized leader of the Young
Democracy, and his personal popularity
and splendid organizing ability contrib-
uted materially to the Democratic vic-
tory in 1884, when the electoral vote of
Connecticut was secured to Cleveland and
Hendricks by a plurality of 1,276. Had
Gov. Waller remained at home the Demo-
cracy would not now find themselves
handicapped in eastern Connecticut by
the unbroken series of political blunders
that has resulted from the leadership of
the Hon. David A. Wells.
The bitter feud existing between, the
Union and the Register, the rival Demo-
cratic organs in this city, has had a dc—
moraliziug effect. It may prove a disturb-
ing element in the coming canvass.
Editor Troup of the Union was appointed
to the office Of Collector of Internal Rev-
cnuc upon the joint recommendation of
the Hon. William H. Barnum and Gov.
Waller. He has proved a most capable
and efiicient ofileer. But the Register
Wing of the party has lost no opportunity
to malign him, and the Register has given
aid and comfort in its columns to an
organization of Irish-Americans who
threaten to bolt in case of President Cleve-
land’s renomination, unless Troup is re
moved before election day.
The pronounced free trade tendency of
the President’s last annual message, while
hailerbwith delight by the Hon. David A.
Wells and his followers, has not increased
the confidence of the sagaeious leaders ot
the Connecticut Democracy in the ability
of the party to keep the State in line.
Connecticut is a manufacturing State.
Many of the leading manufacturers are
Democrats, biit with few exceptions they
are in hearty accord with the views of the
Hon. Samuel J. Randall on the tariff
question. The renomination of President
Cleveland on a platform embodying the
principles laid down in his message would,
to say the least, make the result in Con-
necticut next November exceedingly
doubtful.
This is a summary of the situation in
the Nutmeg State at the present time as it
appears to the Evening Sun correspondent
after a careful survey of the field and
interviews with Democratic leaders, whose
Opinions are entitled to weight. The out-
look is not by any means a reassuring one,
but it is well that the true condition of
affairs be made known at this early day,
and the rank and file of the Connecticut
Democracy warned of the obstacles that
confront them before it is too late.
Much will depend on the gubernatorial
nomination of the Democrats, It seems
to be generally conceded that err-Mayor
Morgan G. Bulkeley, of Hartford will be
the Republican candidate for Governor.
The size-of the check that he contributes
to the campaign fund of his party will
measure his strength as a candidate. He
is relied upon to do at least as well in the
money line as Lounsbiiry did in 1886. It
is not likely that the Democrats can
nominate a man who will be able Or will—
ing to match barrels with him.
11 this emergency it is not surprising
that the eyes of the Connecticut Demo.-
crats are turned toward Consul-General
Waller as the one candidate whose nomin—
atiou for Governor will bring victory this
year and assure the electoral vote of the
State to the nominees of the St. Louis con-
vention. At the recent meeting of the
Democratic State Committee there was a
good deal of quiet talk in favor of nomin-
ating Waller.
Some of his closest political friends de-
clare that it is useless to ask him to accept
the leadership, but there are many Demo-
crats who he love, that he would not refuse
to respond to the numerous calls of his
party associates, even at the sacrifice of
his private interests. The Little Giant
enjoys the prestige of havin already de-
feated one member of the Bul 'cley family
in a gubernatorial canvass. and his friends
feel entirely confident that he could dis-
pose of the Hon. Morgan G. in 1888 as
easily as he did of the Hon. William H.
in 1882. It is undoubtedly true that the
nomination of the eloquent and magnetic
Consul-General would be boiled with, an
enthusiasm in all sections of the State that
could not be awakened under any other
leadership. It will not be at-all strange if
his name is presented to the State Cou-
ventiou and lie is unanimously chosen to
‘head the State ticket of the Democracy,
in the belief that he Will not allow any
personal considerations, no matter how
grave they may be, to stand it: the way of
the success of the party.

the people. These diseases are generally
followed by nervousness, weakness and
prostration. _ Sleepless and restless nights
are followed by a tired waking. There is
often no appetite for breakfast, there may
be a bad taste in the mouth mornings, and
and the person has frequently a dull or

In such cases the food does little. or no
